faulty DME (engine computer)

I have been diagnosed with a faulty computer, a new one is about 2000 dollars plus labor to flash it..So I bought a used one from a wrecking yard with matching numbers, but the computer has a theft deterent system the shop is unable to bypass. They say that other than that, it is ready to go. Does anyone know how to get this thing to work? Or is my only option to drop another 2500 into my car?Thank you

That is correct, but I have tried it with my Mini, I have sent them a used dme I got from a junk yard, then I sent my
EWS along with my Key. I received a working dme,ews and key and the car started without even a visit to the dealer.
I even went to the dealer after that to see if the used dme had the right vin number and programming number, and
they didn't even believe the that dme was changed. That how good the work was.
I am taking not from what I heard, but actually from what i did.
Look them up, they would help anyone with Mini's or Bmw's.
